No Drugs For Me
From Plank Road Publishing
by Teresa JenningsIf your students have an anti-drug abuse program at your school, they'll appreciate this song. Its lyrics very clearly state the case for resistance to drugs. To help make it usable with most students, we have created a call and response section. You can assign the call to your stronger singers and let the others simply imitate them.
One of the coolest things about this song is the '30s jazz style arrangement. For our recording we used a walking acoustic bass, chunking archtop guitar, a trio of solo instrumentalists, drum set, and a comping piano. We also added an organ playing the melody for reinforcement. (from Music K-8, Vol. 18, No. 4)
